    Default AA OOP blind battle

    Opp. is 70/20/2.5 after 100 hands. I have something against folding AA in a HU pot. I didn't reraise because I figured I'd let him use his aggression to give me his stack unless a straightening card came. Look good?

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (3 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Button ($51.30)
    Hero ($48.75)
    BB ($80.70)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with A, A. Hero posts a blind of $0.25.
    1 fold, Hero (poster) raises to $1.75, BB calls $1.50.

    Flop: ($4) 6, 7, 9 (2 players)
    Hero bets $3, BB raises to $6, Hero calls $3.

    Turn: ($16) 4 (2 players)
    Hero checks, BB bets $12, Hero calls $12.

    River: ($40) Q (2 players)
    Hero checks, BB calls $60.70 (All-In), Hero calls $28.75 (All-In).

    Final Pot: $129.45

    I would c/r bomb the turn. That was a really good card for you.

    Call flop and lead a blank turn is another option. Playing A-A this passively is a good way to lose the maximum when behind and win the minimum when ahead.

    Downswinging holla!
    I'd check-raise the turn all in, and probably get shown the nuts, but either way that would be my standard line.
